    House with garden and terrace Ambon (56)

    A renovated former rural estate in more than 1 hectare of land, in southern Brittany, very close to the coast. A small country road, which in places is little more than a lane and is only used by the locals, leads to the property. Two gates stand at the entrance to the estate, in which the buildings are set around a courtyard. The main residence is a two-storey, stone-built, old longhouse with a slate roof. Its southern facade is punctuated by three ashlar wall dormers and a semi-circular arched entrance door. The window as well as door surrounds, quoins and chimney stacks are also made of ashlar. At the end of the longhouse, a row of former pigsties, with a single-sloped roof and today boasting four double-hung doors, pays witness to the property’s original agricultural purpose. At one end of the residence, there is a self-contained dwelling, while at the other, there is a spa room inside a glazed structure. To the rear, there is a two-storey, stone-built, second house with a slate roof. Its facades are punctuated by openings with ashlar surrounds and a wall dormer. Set away from the buildings, there is a carport with a wooden structure, topped by a sheet steel gabled roof, with an open facade, boasting parking capacity for two vehicles. Opposite the residence, a stone-built former barn with a slate gabled roof is used as an outbuilding. On its facade, there are two doors stemming from its previous agricultural use, two hay loft doors with ashlar surrounds and several smaller windows. The various buildings that make up the property were built at different points between the 16th and 19th century. The grounds spread over more than one hectare and are mainly made up of meadows dotted with tall trees. There is also a wooded path leading to a still water-fed fountain.

    Listed castle Montrichard (41)

    A 19th-century chateau to renovate for a tourist project, near to the Loire Valley chateaux in more than 2 hectares of parkland. Off a small road, a private lane crosses the moat and leads to a 16th-century postern listed as a historical monument, behind which there is a large lawned courtyard. On one side, the chateau, which was rebuilt in the 19th century, stands on a rocky outcrop. The five-storey edifice stretches from the ground floor to the attic level beneath the rafters, boasting a tuffeau stone facade and a slate gabled roof. On the main facade, two stone dormers with triangular pediments punctuate the roof. At the top of the tuffeau stone elevation, a denticulated frieze underlines the roof. Each level includes four vertically aligned windows, protected by wrought-iron guard-rails and topped by a cornice. The main residence and its two towers are framed by two small and lower wings with flat roofs crowned by stone balustrades. Except for the roofs of the terraces, which require renovation, the structure of the edifice is in a good state. However, it requires full renovation inside. The four storeys are connected by a stone spiral staircase housed in the larger, multi-sided, crenelated tower that flanks the facade. A more slender tower with a pepper-pot roof stands on the other side of the facade. Each level could be transformed into a large self-contained apartment, while the various terraces make it possible to create private outside spaces. The former carriage shed adjacent to the residence could also be transformed into a self-contained cottage. The same is true of the postern at the entrance and the tithe tower, both of which are bordered by the moat. A swimming pool that resembles a garden pond, set slightly away from the buildings, is surrounded by a lawn, while the tall trees ensure privacy.

    Apartment Paris 7ᵗʰ (75)

    Rue de Bourgogne, an artist's retreat on the 3rd and top floor. The apartment is located within a former private mansion built in 1772 at the request of Jean Joly, secretary to the prince of Condé. The building, which was once the residence of Jean Joly, is organized around a recently renovated cobblestone street, which extends into a tree-filled patio. A gallery topped with a walkway—no longer in use—connects the two wings of the building. Access to the entrance hall is made from one of its ends. A comfortable staircase with oak steps serves the upper floors. The apartment is located on the third and final level. Recently completely refurbished, it has been opened up to provide a vast space with an atelier atmosphere. The seven windows, facing south and overlooking the absolutely calm courtyard, provide abundant light throughout the day. A light oak solid wood floor adorns the ground. At the back, a custom kitchen, equipped with appliances, faucets, and a black granite countertop, was created by a carpenter. An 8-meter long bookshelf, also custom-made, has been installed along the lower part of the wall facing the windows. Discreetly arranged to the left of the kitchen, a small passageway leads to independent toilets and a shower room clad in white marble veined with gray. To maintain the charm of the place, electric heating is provided by old-style cast iron radiators. The windows are double-glazed wooden frames to meet the requirements of this protected area of Paris. Antique-style handles have been carefully chosen to close them. Finally, the beams that structure the ceiling have been painted white to blend into the decor. The apartment is sold with two cellars.This description has been automatically translated from French.

    Listed private mansion with garden Rouen (76)

    In a pedestrian street in the historic centre of Rouen, an apartment of over 300 m² on the first level of a listed 18th-century hôtel particulier. The apartment belongs to a commonhold of six units at the start of a pedestrian street. A discreet carriage entrance with automated gates gives access to a first courtyard, which opens onto a large shared garden of mature trees and the parking spaces. Little about the building's plan has shifted since it was raised. It passed through several families of the Nobles of the Robe in the 18th century before coming, from 1829 to 1871, to Louis de Maupassant, grandfather of Guy de Maupassant; the writer lodged here as a boy while attending the city's Jesuit college, now the Lycée Corneille. Older institutions have left their traces in the party walls nearby — the former Hôpital du Roy, the house of the Oratorian Fathers, the Hôpital Sainte-Barbe — in a finial-carved post, a stone cartouche of scrollwork and small masks, a surviving bell. A listing in the catalogue of historic monuments protects the façades and roofs. Rusticated pilasters divide the bays of the main range, and a baluster guardrail fronts those of the second level. Five dormers punctuate the deep eaves of the Angers-slate roof.

    House with garden La fleche (72)

    A former 15th and 17th century presbytery, with an enclosed garden in a lively village between Le Mans and Angers. Once through the gate and past the surrounding wall that separates it from the village, the former presbytery reveals its elegant rubble-stone facade, featuring windows whose frames – like those of the doors – are made of tuffeau stone, some of which are finely carved. The high slate roof is pierced by dormer windows with gables, also made of tuffeau stone. The two-storey building is L-shaped: from the entrance courtyard, you can see the 15th-century main building, of which only the windows were altered in the 17th century. Built around 1650, the newer wing has retained its original layout. It enabled the building to be adapted for use as a retreat centre, following its conversion into a minor seminary of the Order of Saint-Sulpice. Facing north-west towards the landscaped park and south-east towards the former vicarage garden, the building forms a right-angled extension to the 15th-century wing. On the ground floor, the reception rooms are light and spacious with high ceilings. They have retained their original decorative features. There are seven bedrooms and four bathrooms spread across the two floors. The loft is suitable for conversion.

    House with garden Rians (83)

    In Haut-Var, a private mansion from the 18th century and its garden. Built around 1750, the mansion occupies a plot in the heart of the old village. Its lime-rendered facade is organized around a monumental stone entrance topped with a sculpted keystone. A wrought-iron balcony with a central medallion emphasizes the main axis, while the double windows with small panes are protected by painted shutters in almond green. The property develops approximately 440 m² of living space spread over four levels. Two independent accesses lead to the residence. The first, on the street side to the west, leads directly to the ground floor, which consists of an independent apartment. The second crosses the walled garden, accessible from a small private courtyard to the north and through a door in the wall to the east. At the center of the house is a spiral staircase that connects all the floors. Its glazed terracotta steps, wrought iron railing with intricate scrolls, and suspended lantern made of colored stained glass are among the most remarkable features of the residence. Inside, the old fittings have largely been preserved: glazed hexagonal tiles, lime-rendered French ceilings, stucco cornices, old woodwork, and sculpted marble fireplaces.This description has been automatically translated from French.

    House with garden and terrace Orleans (45)

    A Louis XIII style chateau to restore, with converted outbuildings, and 350 hectares of land, at the gateway to the Sologne sector, near Orleans. From the centre of the village, a driveway passes through the parkland and leads to the chateau and its outbuildings. It was originally built in the 17th century before being identically reconstructed in 1883, with the current residence replacing an older one that featured on plans dating back to 1640. Only a circular dovecote in ruins still remains from the original buildings. For a long time, this chateau was used as a hunting lodge. It boasts a floor area of approximately 660 m² and needs to be entirely restored. The brick-built edifice possesses three storeys, one of which is in the attic level, and is topped by a hipped slate roof punctuated by dormers. The main facade, boasting thirteen vertical rows of openings, is preceded by a stoop and wide patio bordered by a guard-rail made up of stone balusters. It also has a slightly protruding central section. The quoins, door and window surrounds, as well as dormers with curved or triangular pediments are made of white stone. A small, single-storey pavilion adjoins the eastern gable wall. A pavilion and an outbuilding forming a U-shape can be found to the west. The more than 400-m² large pavilion has been partially converted. Work will be necessary to complete the rest. Most of the outbuildings, with a floor area of around 1060 m², have been converted into eleven dwellings. They were renovated in 2023 and are currently rented. Four other houses are dotted around the parkland, three of which are rented, plus there is a former sheep barn, with all the edifices totalling a surface of around 600 m². The fourth, approximately 90-m² house and a more than 200-m² farm standing away from the chateau in the woods, require renovation work. In front of the chateau, there is a landscaped garden. To the rear and sides, spreading over more than 350 hectares, there is a forest, agricultural land and a solar panel farm.

    House with pool Ciutadella de Menorca (Spain)

    In Ciutadella, Menorca, a 50,000 m² farmstead comprising a house, orchards and traditional outbuildings. Fifty thousand square metres is the scale at which a property becomes a territory. The Menorcan light bleaches the walls. The orchards breathe in the salty air drifting up from the south. The house awaits those seeking silence. Here, no one measures success in terms of yield. It is measured in years that pass without change. The fruit trees recognise the hand that prunes them. In Ciutadella, it is simply a place that refuses to be forgotten.

    House with garden and terrace Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines (68)

    A 16th-century mining official’s residence with a tower, in Alsace, in Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines town-centre, 50 minutes from Strasbourg. The property was originally built by a mining company for one of its officials and was home to several families of textile sector industrialists from 1763 onwards. It is surrounded by an approximately 1,000-m² tree-filled garden that is separated from the street by wrought-iron railings atop a low, rendered stone wall. The entrance is via a wrought-iron gate from a square called Place de la Fleur. A second gate opens into the garden and a third, to the north, leads to a courtyard with parking capacity for several vehicles. To the north of the garden, a high wall separates the plot from the neighbouring homes. The house is made of rendered rubble stone and boasts a main facade divided into four vertical rows of openings, in the centre of which there is a tower housing a spiral staircase. An extension built in the early 20th century stands adjacent to the main residence and overlooks the courtyard. On the ground floor, it previously housed a doctor’s surgery. The edifice possesses three storeys, one of which is an attic level, beneath a roof of interlocking tiles for the main residence and traditional flat ‘Biberschwantz’ tiles, with three hipped dormers, for the extension. The window and door surrounds as well the quoins are made of pink Vosges sandstone. The courtyard also leads to a large garage with capacity for several vehicles and a small annexe, which is the remains of a former large outbuilding, most of which has been demolished.

    Castle Chalmazel-Jeansagnière (42)

    1.5 hours from Lyon, crowning a promontory in a mountain resort, a medieval fortified château, listed as a historic monument. The property survives as one preserved architectural composition, its silhouette dominating the Forez landscape. Four levels rise on a pentagonal plan of irregular sides. Cylindrical towers flank every corner but the south-eastern, which meets the quadrangular keep, and the five wings enclose an inner courtyard. Gabled roofs of barrel tiles cover the main house, conical ones the round towers. Beneath them, facades of granite rubble stone under pale render set mullioned windows alongside later openings and surviving elements of fortification. A parapet walk carried on corbelled machicolations runs along part of the wall tops, while a Renaissance doorway records the alterations made when the stronghold became a seigneurial house. The stone holds several centuries of history and successive adaptation, and the nobility of its original character survives them all.

    House with pool and garden Marseille 9ᵗʰ (13)

    A villa in a 1,600-m² garden with a swimming pool, in Marseille, near to the Calanques coves. At the end of a no-through road, far from the hustle and bustle of the city, this property can be entered through a finely crafted ironwork gate. A drive runs firstly alongside a swimming pool and then passes through the landscaped garden before reaching the villa, tucked away behind the foliage, which provides welcome coolness during the hot days of summer. The property is made up of three sections in an inverted U-shape, all with roofs made of interlocking tiles. The facades are perforated with large windows fitted with wooden panels or shutters, in need of restoration. The first, west to east oriented central section, set slightly back from the other two parts houses the main entrance. It includes a kitchen and leads to two other rooms as well as a garage. On the top floor, two suites each including a bedroom, a bathroom and a lavatory also boast roof terraces. The second section, to the west, is set diagonally southwest/northeast to the central edifice and contains a lounge with a fireplace. The third section, to the east, set north to south, stands perpendicularly to the main section and includes three bedrooms as well as a shared bathroom. The rooms on the ground floor are either paved with terracotta tiles or cement tiles. The house is equipped with electric heating and air conditioning.

    Property with pool and garden Lectoure (32)

    On a hilltop near Lectoure, in the Gers, An 18th-century chartreuse with service quarters and 22 ha grounds. A drive of over 300 m, sheltered by the canopy of centuries-old cedars, leads from the departmental road to the buildings. Two long, rectangular structures stand on a gravelled terrace within some 22 ha of grounds planted with mature trees. From the open ground between them, the view reaches to the village church tower and, beyond it, to the outline of the château. At the rear, a terrace rests against a fortified stone wall above a former fish pond. Facing the valley, the chartreuse offers 580 m² of living space, almost all on a single level. Remodelled in the 18th century, it follows the form of the late-17th-century country houses of the Gascon countryside: long and low, with a gabled roof of barrel tiles pierced by five dormers. The symmetrical main facade centres on a glazed double door, with four bays on either side. Patinated lime render coats the stone walls; dressed-stone lintels and jambs frame the arched openings. A tower flanks each end of the central block, and an orangery extends the south wing. Slightly apart stand a garden chalet and a timber above-ground pool.

    House with pool and garden Bernay (27)

    A 19th-century mansion, guest house and 6,000 m² landscaped grounds in a Normandy village surrounded by forests, less than two hours from Paris. Set back from the street, a solid wrought-iron gate, flanked by two brick pillars, leads into the property. Completely shielded from view by hedges, tall trees and, in places, cob walls, it features a richly wooded and landscaped park surrounding two main buildings. From the entrance, two wide gravel paths wind their way round a vast rose garden before joining at the foot of the stone staircase leading up to the front steps of the manor house. Built in 1875, it stands at the centre of the estate. With an almost square floor plan, the property comprises four storeys – including a basement and an attic – and offers over 270 m² of living space. The building displays all of the characteristics of late 19th-century bourgeois architecture. The facades, built of rendered rubble stone, have corner quoins, string courses, window surrounds and brick cornices. The ground floor features two windows. The ground floor has a front door surmounted by a canopy, flanked by two large arched windows fitted with shutters. Three identical windows bring light to the main floor, whilst three dormer windows with arched pediments rise from the slate Mansard roof, which is crowned by two ridge finials and four chimney pots. About 20 metres away, set back at a right angle and facing south, there is a guest house measuring nearly 120 m² opposite the main house. Probably built in the early 19th century, it is a brick building with a slate roof, two storeys’ high and extended by several outbuildings, which house, amongst other things, a utility room, storage areas and a garage. On the east side, a large wooden terrace extends from the main house and leads to an indoor swimming pool, discreetly set in the garden. The grounds, with their extensive lawns, are dotted with various large trees, flowerbeds and a substantial rose garden, which emphasise the views between the two buildings and lend the whole estate the character of an elegant holiday home.

    Manor Agon-Coutainville (50)

    A restored manor house, outbuilding and 2 hectares of grounds, in a village by the sea on the Cotentin peninsula. In a hamlet a few hundred metres from the village centre, a small road runs alongside the low hedge of the property’s garden. In the distance, a turret topped with a slate roof stands guard over a white wooden gate. Once you’ve crossed it, a gravel path runs alongside a low bench-like wall topped with railings. After a second gate, the driveway leads to the main house and an inner courtyard. The house, built of exposed white stone, is two storeys’ high with an attic, topped by a recently renovated slate roof and crowned with tall chimneys. The facades have straight shaped, evenly spaced windows, with restored white wooden shutters. A pediment adorned with scrolls and Renaissance heraldic figures has a window decorated with an accolade and a coat of arms. The oldest part comprises the remains of a chapel belonging to a 12th-century presbytery. On the ground floor, the house has an entrance hall, a kitchen and utility rooms, a dining room, two living rooms, a bedroom and a shower room. On the first floor there is a master bedroom, four further bedrooms, a shared shower room, a toilet and a bathroom; and in the attic, a loft and two uninsulated rooms.

    House with garden Coutances (50)

    A 19th-century farming estate in around 12-hectares, in the centre of the Manche area, between Saint-Lô and the sea. At the end of a long, straight driveway bordered by beech and ash trees, the property looms into view amidst almost 12 uninterrupted hectares of meadows. The various sections of the land surrounding the buildings are all interlinked and dotted with springs, with a stream running through them. The pastureland has been grown without the use of agricultural inputs since 1996. In the centre of the land, the southeast-facing manor house built in 1850 overlooks a courtyard. Several steps lead to a raised garden in front of the stone-built edifice with a slate roof. The two-storey residence is topped by an attic level and boasts symmetrical facades, punctuated by many double-glazed windows fitted with solid wood and louvred shutters. The approximately 180-m² interior is made up of five bedrooms, two bathrooms, an office, wardrobe space, a lounge, which boasts a fireplace, and a fitted kitchen. To the south, two farm buildings form two wings on either side of the lawned and tree-filled courtyard. The first is a more than 25-metre-long stone building topped by a recently installed slate roof and includes garages, a loosebox, a workshop and an around 50-m² holiday cottage. Along the entire length of the building, the attic level can be converted. The other farm building is made of stone and cob in accordance with widespread traditional local techniques. The interior is made up of looseboxes, a workshop and a stabling area. Set slightly further away, there is a restored bakery with an oakwood door and a fireplace, paying witness to the estate’s original food-producing activity. Further still, there is an agricultural storehouse and a sheep barn, while a dressage area for horses, in need of renovation, is followed by meadows. A vegetable garden partially enclosed by a cob wall plays host to almost a dozen fruit trees.

    Manor Lannion (22)

    A fully restored 16th- and 17th-century manor house in Trégor, about 20 minutes from the nearest beaches. The manor house was built in the heart of peaceful wooded countryside. It served both as a stately home and as the centre of a farm. The noble family who owned it enjoyed privileges within the parish church, as well as the right to exercise high, middle and low justice, symbolised by a sinister three-pillar gallows. Access to the property is via a local track which starts on a quiet country road, before continuing along a private track closed off by a metal gate. From the entrance, the manor house comes into view in the distance, set amongst tall trees. Facing east-west, it is flanked by three stone outbuildings, comprising a farmhouse, a barn adjoining two horse stalls and a feed store, arranged around a courtyard. The property is surrounded by land with an orchard and meadows. The buildings are constructed of rubble stone and dressed granite blocks, with slate roofs. The manor house, which has recently been restored, appears to be the result of two separate construction phases: the northern part is thought to date back to the 16th century, whilst the southern part is believed to have been built in 1665. The main building, which is a rectangular shape, rises over three storeys beneath a roof featuring two tall chimney stacks situated at each end of the gables. The main facade has a dormer window with a pediment, surmounted by a semi-circular gable softened by counter-curves. It also features several remarkable architectural elements, including a semi-circular archway and two bull’s-eye windows. The lintel of a window bears the date 1665 and the monogram IHS (Iesus Hominum Salvator, 'Jesus, saviour of men'), surmounted by a cross. At the back, a square tower topped with a hipped roof houses a granite spiral staircase leading to the upper floors. Finally, a chapel/well faces the manor house.

    House with garden and terrace Toucy (89)

    An authentic country house with a lush garden boasting a variety of plants and trees, 2 hours from Paris, in Burgundy, in the Yonne area. A small road that winds through the slightly undulating countryside as far as the eye can see leads to the hamlet made up of stone houses and former farmyard buildings. At the end of the road, there is a former wash house surrounded by meadows. High stone walls lined with honeysuckle and vines, a reminder of the region’s origins, flank the house. There are two entrances to the property: the first is through a white fence leading to a patio sheltered by large trees, while the second is through a small white door that leads directly into the garden. Instead of a doorbell, there is a bell fixed high up on the wall, adding character to the dwelling. Japanese paving leads up to the entrance door through a lush, green lawn. There is also a barn next to this north-south facing three-storey house with a gabled roof made of Burgundy flat tiles. Purple wisteria adorns the limewash rendered façades of the buildings, including the one to the rear of the house facing north, from which a dry-stone wall extends, enclosing a patio with wooden decking, recently installed for use during the summer.
